Simon Harris: I propose to take Questions Nos. 1 to 5, inclusive, together. I attended the 41st British-Irish Council summit, hosted by the Isle of Man, on 21 June.

The vote for Reform UK is a...
- Ceisteanna - Questions: British-Irish Co-operation (10 Jul 2024)
Ruairi Ó Murchú: The so-called legacy Bill of the previous British Government is callous, cruel and irredeemable in its entirety. The intention of the British Government was clear, that inquests and investigations would go unfinished and families would remain without truth or justice, which they deserve. We all understand why the British Government did this. That particular British Government was not...
